Ahead of the first Manchester derby last season there was only one topic to dominate the build-up. Or to be more specific, one person.
The same can be said of the build-up to Sunday's clash between Manchester City and Manchester United. Except the main attraction in 2022 is no longer Cristiano Ronaldo.
Instead, City striker Erling Haaland was the subject of most questions to Pep Guardiola and Erik ten Hag on Friday, with the prolific goalscorer getting an early opportunity to assert his authority on Manchester.
